About These Units
Micrometer (μm)
A micrometer (μm), also called a micron, is a metric unit equal to one millionth of a meter or 0.001 millimeters. Micrometers are used for measuring bacteria (1-10 μm), human hair diameter (70-100 μm), red blood cells (7 μm), and semiconductor features.
Yard (yd)
A yard (yd) is an imperial unit equal to 3 feet, 36 inches, or 0.9144 meters. Yards are used in the United States for measuring fabric, football fields (100 yards), golf courses, and home improvement projects. One meter equals approximately 1.094 yards.
